families who pray together...

If you looked at our "calendars" lately you would see that our life has been c-r-a-z-y. Dan is in the midst of a power plant outage so he's working 24/7 (3 weeks down, 1 week to go as single mom), my own job has been overly demanding, we have 3 crazy cute kids we're taking care of, growing the roastery business, the you-name-it.

BUT, there are these moments in between all that.

These moments that make it so sweet.

When we're on weekend adventures, or when we're throwing a sorry excuse for dinner together as quickly as possible to get to play time, the moments when I don't think I can stay awake another moment so we cuddle up in a pile of babies and watch movies together in bed and these rare moments we steal over late night dinners when Daddy happens to sneak in before bedtime.

There's so much I love about this video (not that Jackie is cut out of view...), his enthusiastic AMENs!, that prayer time gets a liiiitle long and sometimes you just need to rest your head on your baseball bat (b/c everyone needs one of those on the dinner table...) and how he so sweetly pats Daddy's hand in the middle.
